Agilent Technologies Releases New Software to Automate UMTS Cellular Mobile Stress Test

Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) today introduced new Interactive Functional Test (IFT) software for its 8960 Series 10 (E5515C) Wireless Communications Test Set. Expanding on the functional test capability of this test set, the new IFT software provides an automated and simplified interface for realistically testing "user experience" by stress testing cellular mobile devices in real-world network scenarios. By allowing earlier identification of design issues and reducing time to market, this software is ideal for UMTS mobile phone/device developers conducting functional validation, as well as service providers performing acceptance testing.

Agilent will demonstrate the new IFT software in Hall 1, Stand D45 at the Mobile World Congress 2008, Feb. 11-14 at the Fira Congress Center, Barcelona, Spain. Also showcased at the event will be a robust set of test solutions for R&D, manufacturing and service providers, including RF verification and parametric test for chipset manufacturing, LTE UE protocol development solutions, drive test solutions for Mobile WiMAX(tm) Wave 2, MSS End-2-End Monitoring and troubleshooting, LTE distributed performance management, and UU Monitoring.
